I actually Disagree TeaBag ..Yea we have a rook playin Center but our biggest week spot is Carlisle
*********************************************

Did you see Mario Henderson almost get Campbell obliterated in the Niner game?

Gallery hasn’t looked too well…

A rook @ C …. a 6’8 one at that playing C…. who missed two KEY assignments on running plays in the SF game and had McFadden wrapped up almost before he could take the handoff…

R4L, ok, yep we got that one, but what do you think of Cambell going to RT?

PurpleDrank81

Who honestly thought that R.Seymour was gonna be here last year … It’s and Uncapped year and Davis is crazy enough to do it

priesttj

Ok maybe he’s not what I saw at Missouri anymore I haven’t seen him at this level. So I’ll take your word for it. He seemed like a good prospect.

Dre Bly among Lions cuts
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on September 4, 2010 8:25 PM ET
Cornerback Dre Bly is not gonna be Dre for the Detroit Lions again.

Bly was among the final roster cuts Detroit announced Saturday night,

priesttj

But don’t react to fast to these cuts a lot of these kids will end up on PS. You only have 53 spots and most teams would like to keep 60+ players.

#150- Alice Shatner, lmao, he does over accentuate much like his daddy

304 – By his own admission, I think it is too early for Campbell at RT. I would love to see Carlisle replaced and I think Walker makes for a good RG, but is he ready? If the coaches feel it is a wash, then buy all means, lets go with youth!

Ravens cut troy smith. would much rather have hue jackson coach him up then keep kyle boller. we already know what boller can do, and its not very impressive.

Revis finally ready to quit Jets!!revis grandfather says teams treatment like a slap in the face.

R4L, good answer! You are a Raider Fan, welcome aboard! Everyone, New Fan, Raiders for Life is with Us, wecome him, But yes, R4L, he needs to be developed, but my guess, at, at least 2 positions. I think he can do it!

I love wearing my Raider garb in “Choppers”, a great Colorado sports bar. Most of the Doncs fan respect my passion even though they ride my arse. Fortunately, we have split the previous two seasons but this is going to be a fun year……

Raiders 4 Life

QB is not very high on our list of needed upgrades. If Hue brings on Troy, then we will know he is better than Boller but don’t hold your breathe.

R4L, this year you will be able to SWAGGER, been doing it all my life, get used to it!

ArmChair GM

Lester Hayes and Mike Haynes…

reincarnated as Nnamdi Asomugha and Darelle Revis. Al has wanted to recreate that tandem since that duo ended. That is why he got Deangelo Hall, but unfortunately Hall was overrated, and not a bump and run, press, man to man, cornerback.

But Revis is. And Big Al has no problem paying him the big bucks that he wants. Can you imagine how much that would piss off NY and the rest of the NFL? Al would do it for that reason alone.

If the Jets can’t work out a deal for Revis, and he ends up leaving NY, I see it happening. He will come to Oakland.

Print that.

……………………………………………….

agreed, but the name of the game is upgrade your roster, and most would agree thats an upgrade. we did use all 3 qb’s last year as it is.

im just hoping for hartwig or housh.

Raiders 4 Life

Sam Williams still on official team roster.

Todd,

Have all kinds of prop bets on the Raiders this year. Wins, sacks, AFC West, Defensive Rookie of the Year so I hope so…..

Yea…. Revis a zone CB…. coming to the great CB friendly MAN 1 scheme in Oakland…. Al is going to pay Revis 15 mil per to have that DREAM TANDEM AGAIN!!!! ….

Right, because the zone to man transition worked sooooooooooooo well for D.Hall……..

Arm, I read the NY Post every day, He is a nut case lookin for a payday! He’s nuttier than a Raider, pass!

Guy

Juaquin Iglesias and Jarron Gilbert maybe? Get rid of Figurs and ?? and do you guys think Hartwig would be better than Veldheer as the season progresses?

Raiders 4 Life

Hartwig and Housh would both be upgrades. I am holding out for Logan Mankins. Might as well reach high. I still think we may trade a safety as well. I think that Branch, with his speed as the last line of defense with MM34 in the box is not a bad combo!

Just Fire Baby

Jarron Gilbert was cut? Interesting.

I guess jumping out of a pool on youtube didn’t translate to the NFL. Who knew!!!

NFL Network’s Michael Lombardi reports the Lions have acquired CB Alphonso Smith from the Broncos in exchange for TE Dan Gronkowski.
Coach Josh McDaniels deserves another year or two to implement his program in Denver, but the early returns on his draft results aren’t pretty. The Broncos traded a first-round pick to grab Smith in the second round last year, and they’ve now ditched him for a tight end who couldn’t make the Lions roster last season. It’s a smart move by Detroit, adding an early-round talent to a thin secondary while gambling that they can develop Smith where Denver failed.

Revis is too good a player to be sitting out a year of football. Al Davis is a shark, he’s done this sort of thing many times in the past and we all know Al is a creature of habit.

If AL can pull Revis out of His arse THAT would be amazing.

It would be cool to hear the old man at a presser just prior to the Season.

Twocents

I’m afraid that ArmChair GM is right.

I’m not a big fan of Routt, but why bring in a disrupting factor at this point.

Al just has to do it his way.

Guy

I said this before and the what if game is crazy but wow what if Al Davis had taken Revis over Russel? We would have got so much crap for that and I probably would have been pretty mad too at the time. Wish Al woulda went DB crazy in that draft haha

Yep, a good promotional tool for da raiduhs, a coup signing to have an annual State of the Raiders press conference. Al is always looking to make a mark in the NFL, be talked about for something newsworthy like a Revis signing would. While it’s unlikely, it certainly is possible and in Al’s nature.
